Does this mean that the few stackers who zap 100+ will still have more power to influence? You'd better think carefully about the consequences of this change.

few stackers .. more power to influence
So you want to keep giving a fraction of a penny and feel like your vote counts for anything?
On the flip side, I have absolutely no incentive to keep commenting or posting on this site. Why gate keep all of my data, content, and money for a couple pennies a day.

SN certainly isn't about making money. It's testing out how money can be used as a moderator. What sort of community is created when money is the moderator? Does it provide a better place to have the kind of conversation you are looking for? Maybe a 100 sat zap will do more to facilitate that than a 1 sat zap. Certainly worth experimenting with. But I don't think the number of sats a post attracts is the only sign of its success (however the poster might define that).

A negligible amount of money does nothing to prove out the concepts of money being used at all.

Fair. I wonder where the balance is though? Bitcoiners are notorious (possibly falsely) for not wanting to part with their sats. Previous polls/comments here lead me to suspect that a 1000 sat zap minimum would significantly reduce users. Yet $0.75 is still pretty negligible.
